DIFFERENCE:
FINE ART CRAFT
ANALYSIS

Both fine art and craft require great skills and knowledge.

Fine art produces unique items and only selective people can
interpret the true meaning behind the artwork.

On the other hand, crafts are created in multiple amounts and


a larger community of people are attracted to them due to
their usefulness.
ANALYSIS
In my opinion, fine art is more beneficial as:

1. It is a medium expressing your true emotions and


creativity.
2. It holds more meaning than craft.
3. Creating something new without copying, boosts your
confidence level.
4. You enable people to perceive the world through your
eyes
